“Is this covered by HOA rules?”
If you paint your nuclear reactor the wrong color they will fine you. Don’t ask how I know.
Be the first kid in your neighborhood to blow up your neighborhood... girls will fawn all over you, on your way to jail.
I’m surprised they didn’t call it an “arsenal”, yet.
It’s not even medium sized.
So the guy was just your typical home start-up business/inventor?
It’s still safer than a meth lab.
Or so I’ve even told.
It is for a school project . . .
I recall that several years ago a teen aged kid was trying to do this. He collected his radioactive material from smoke detectors. Had enough to create quite a problem by the time he was discovered.

DOn’t be so quick to “build a bridge too far”
Overheating corn silo? Boom.
Maybe the person is a Ghost Buster ,unlicensed nuclear reactor thingy
He never actually built one, but his term paper wherein he designed one was confiscated by the Feds. https://www.amazon.com/Mushroom-bomb-John-Aristotle-Phillips/dp/0688033512

A bridge too far.

When pressed for more details about the injured nuclear reactor builder,Fire Chief Steve Martin quipped “The guy was a jerk, a wild and crazy guy. The burns suffered by the individual reeked of a odor that closely resembled tuna fish sandwich.”
Upon concluding the presser, the fire chief donned his helmet, which had an arrow protruding through it, picked up his banjo and began singing about an Egytian, mummified king.
